Cool. Sunday at 2 works fine for me, and I'll probably be on a few times otherwise this weekend as well. I will admit that I was completely unable to decipher the spreadsheet the first time I tried, but I'll see if I can't figure it out now.

I'm psyched to see the Druid... but kind of bummed they chose to go to the Forgotten Realms universe when there's still so much left of Eberron to flesh out (it even has its own Underdark, more's the pity).

Was once tempted to try this, but for some reason the site back then refused to let me register :( If it'll let me do so again I'd probably give it a shot. How is the combat? I hear it's more like an action-rpg than most mmos?

It is. Positioning matters, you actively block and dodge, and even attack is an actual (mostly) sword swing. You target spells (rays can be dodged easily), etc.

I logged in yesterday to check mail and the airship. I've purchased two weeks and three days of buff stations on the airship, and added a Free Agents tavern on the deck. Remember, any officer can refresh the buff hirelings. To initially spawn one, you only get 3 days, but subsequent applications of the hireling deed adds a week to it, so it is far more advantageous to recharge them before they expire.

I had some large unexpected bills lately, so let my sub lapse. When things get better, I'll resub.

How this game compares to LOTRO? I played that one for a bit but it felt... boring. As most MMOs. For reference, I loved the week that I've played Pirates of the Burning Sea (good ambientation, good mini-games, not as boring combat, etc.) - in general, I felt that I was doing something worthwhile.

Ok I'm in on this with my Cleric Stonus Weedus, will give the game a fair shake and see if it holds my attention enough to play a lot, which MMOs tend not to do, but hey, it's free. I'm on Ghallandra too as well.
